You start night shift at 22:00 and finish at 06:00 with a 45-minute break. How many hours do you work?
Give your answer to 2 decimal places.

To calculate the total hours worked, we follow these steps:

1. **Start time:** 22:00 (10:00 PM)
2. **End time:** 06:00 (6:00 AM)
3. **Total time without break:** From 22:00 to 06:00 is 8 hours.
4. **Break duration:** 45 minutes, which is \( \frac{45}{60} = 0.75 \) hours.

Now, subtract the break from the total time:

\[
\text{Total time worked} = 8 \, \text{hours} - 0.75 \, \text{hours} = 7.25 \, \text{hours}
\]

Therefore, you work **7.25 hours**.
